Ed. Hodgins, the well-known hotel
man of Ripley, is in favor of Total Pro-
hibition. Ile says he has sold whisky
for fourteen years, and thinks if the
sale of liquor was prohibited in Ontario
it would prove beneficial to him and his
family. When asked as to what he
thought of the fight the temperance
people were making against the liquor
traffic, Mr. Hodginsreplied"If we have
Total Prohibition, I am not afraid of my
property depreciating in value." I admit
the profit on the sale of whisky is largo,
but I can snake a living in running a
strictly temperance house. I pay a
license to sell liquor, but minors and
intoxicated men Cannot buy whisky in

day at 7 p. in., and not opened until

A. E. Simmons, of Wingharn, a
quack printer, professes to do $10 worth
of work for $5. He calls it a sweeping
reduction, and he calculates to rope in
business then generally. The work he
advertised is not worth $10 as he
claims, but if honest material is put in
he cannot do it for $5 and make wages.
The printers and publishers of Huron
county do not over charge for printing
of any kind, and should be:encoura reel

Mr. Thomas Ticknor, jeweller, of
Parkhill, Ont., ruaanufaf:tu?ed not long
ago in his own situ) (Parkhill) a
steam engine which is belived to be the
smallest perfect steam engine in the
world. This mechanical marvel he has
christened "The Little Jumbo." Its
mechanism certainly reflects the high-
est credit on the perseverance and abil-
ity of Mr. Ticknor. "The Little Jum-
bo" is trade almost entirely of steel,
highly polished, and is a perfect
Model in every respect. It works with
perfect accuracy aj d ease. When in
]notion it makes a musical hum similar
to the noise made by a small My. The
dimensions and ('apa('ity areas follows:
—Outside dianu'ter of cylinder, 1-18 of
an inch; bore of cylinder, about 1-60 of
an inch ; weight of entire engine 1-2,a
grain ; revolutions per minute, 1,700.
"The Little J nrnbo's" piston, slide valve,
eccentric and steam ports are so small
that aL microscope is required to exam-
ine thein. The 1)alance wheel is 3-32 of
an incl] in diameter. The diameter of
the driving shaft is about that of a
human hair, 1-10 of an inch in length.
The length of the entire engine, includ-
ing the balance wheel, is but 5-32 of an
inch, or one half the length of a grain
of wheat.

The firebug is again at large in Sarnia,
there having been no less than six in-
cendiary fires in that town within the
forty-eight hours ending Tneday 'even-
ing. The largest of them was the resi-
dence, of Editor McAdams, of the Cana

morning. At the sane time several
barns within two blocks of McAdams'
residence were also burned. On Monday
evening Mr. McAdam's barns were
burned, also by an incendiary's hand.
The night police force of Sarnia has
been doubled to secure better protec-

seems of little avail.

Rev. S. J. Cummings, the pastor of

New York, has had an experience that
snakes him one of the most talked of
men in Cattataugns county. To a re-

toy giving them a trlai. Ile brought
me two boxes and I commenced to take
them. I soon found toy health impt ov-

horse and family at this place. Some,
of my friends insisted that the benefit
was only temporary, that I would soots
have a relapse and be worse than before
but I have continued to take them and
now feel like a new pian. The sudden
attacks of pain which formerly prostra-
ted ore on my bed do not recur, and
I have exposed myself many times in a
way that would have formerly brought
theta on.

Druggists everywhere beat' witness
to the firm hold this wonderful Cana-
dian medicine has taken upon the
public, aiucl to the vast good it has ac-
complished in relieving suffering, and
thousands of grateful people like Rev.
Mr. Cumin lags, cheerfully testify to the
benefits derived from its use, often
after 51(1110(. physicians had absolutely
failed to help then]. If you are ailing

An analysis of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
shows that they contain in :t condensed
form all the'e dements necessary to give
new lite and richness to the bfoodatild re-

tuifailing specific for such diseases as

dependincw' upon vitiated humors of the
blood, such as sc:vfulct, chronic erysipe-

troubles peculiar to females, such as
suppressions, irregularities, and all
forms of weakness. They build up the
blood, and restore the glow of health to
pale and sallow cheeks. 1n seen they
effect a radical cure in all cases arising
from mental wort y, overwork, or ex-
cesses of whatever nature. There are
no ill effects following the use of this
wonderful medicine, and it can be
given to children with perfect safety.
These pills are manufactured by the
Dr. Williams' Medicine Company,
Brockville, Ont., and Schenectady, N.
Y., and are sold only in boxes hearing
the firm's trade mark and wrapper, at
50 cents a box or six boxes 'for $2.50,
and are never sold in bulk. There are
numerous imitations and other so-called
blood builders against which the public
are cautioned. If your dealer does not
keep Ih'. Williams' Pink Pills they
will be sent post-paid on receipt of
above price.
